Functions of LncRNAs, exosomes derived MSCs and immune regulatory molecules in preeclampsia disease.

Modulatory signaling pathway such as T cell immunoreceptor with Ig and ITIM domains (TIGIT), Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Associated Protein 4 (CTLA-4), P53 signaling and TIM (T-cell immunoglobin and mucin domain) are important in normal pregnancy and loss of their functions or dysregulation of related genes can lead to some disorders. Inflammation is a process by which your body's white blood cells and the things they make protect you from infection from outside invaders, such as bacteria and viruses. Some cellular and molecular signaling have been categorized to demonstrate the mechanism that protects tolerance to antigens.

Prevalence of depression, anxiety, stress and its relationship with knowledge about COVID-19 in medical and laboratory medicine students of Umm-Al-Qura University: a cross-sectional survey.

Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has continued relentlessly for over one and half years now, causing a threat to life, fear of falling sick, helplessness, anxiety, depression and, pessimism about the future. There has been an increasing concern over student mental health in higher education. Our study was designed to measure current mental health status and its relationship with sociodemographic variables and level of knowledge about COVID-19 in Saudi Arabia.

Biologically Synthesized Peptides Show Remarkable Inhibition Activity against Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme: A Promising Approach for Peptide Development against Autoimmune Diseases.

Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) regulates several biological functions besides its vital role in immune functions. ACE is elevated in immune cells in inflammatory diseases including atherosclerosis, granuloma, chronic kidney disease, and also autoimmune diseases, like multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and type I diabetes. No significant information prevails in the literature regarding the isolation, identification, and profiling of potential ACE inhibitory peptides.

Medicinal plants show remarkable antiproliferative potential in human cancer cell lines.

Molecules isolated and identified from plant origin are used to manufacture most chemotherapeutic drugs for cancer treatment. We assumed that these plant extracts contain prolific bioactive compounds with potent antiproliferative activities and could be effective against different human cancer cells. Ethanolic extracts were prepared from Chelidonium majus, Myrica cerifera, Fumaria indica, Nigella sativa, and Silybum marianum, and the antiproliferative assay was performed in HepG2 and HeLa human cancer cell lines.
